EMPLOYING THE EMPLOYER

EMIlIO1lNU HE EhIi4O1 ElNs
At Auburn, Maine, is one of the large
shoe manufacturing establishments for
which New England is noted. The fac
tory of Messrs. Asa Cushmen x Co., hay-
ing lost money for a year, it was suggested
a wear ago that the establishment shonld
be run on the profit sharing plan for a
wear. The result has Just been declared;
and there are facts contained ia the report
which are interesting. 1t is shown that 4
wear = the Executive Committee Of the
workmeu hired Mr.. CuShman to manage
the business together with the other mem
hers ofthe firm. The factory was rented
and an agreement was entered into to pay
a certain per cent. interest on the capital
invested. 1t then remained to he dem
Oustrated whether the eight hun
dred wOrkmen could contribute any
thing in the way of profit to the business
that had previously done; and it has turn
ed out agreeably TO all concerned, as a
dividend Of 4 per cent, has ust been de
clared on the amount OF every one OF the
shOemaker's wages. The business of the
factory for the year amounted to 81, 269,-
262. The cost of labor was S2SS, pa, in
addition to the dividend, which amounted
TO $l1, 529. And the business of the fac
tory was larger under the profit sharing
system than ever before. The chairman of
the committee, in submitting his report,
declared his belief that the dividend might
have been l per cent more if they all had
realized how much rested with them.
This experiment is worth noting. 1t is
also worthy of note that the factory had
the advantage OF an experienced manager.
The fact that men take more interest in
their work when they are working for
themselves than when working for Others
and will do more anu better work will to a
great extent explain the difference in the
profits OF the factory.

DIR. j. &. ARMSTRONG
Positively Denies That lie is to Join the
Roman Catholic Church.
pirLuDuI HJyI

Richmond Uhig.
A Wing representative yesterday called
on Mrs. Edwin 4. Vim, who lives at No.
800 East Marshall street, for the purpose
of learning whether she was the recipient
of a letter from DR.. j. G. Armstrong, of
Atlanta, Ga, giving some new facts rela-
tive to the erroneous report that he DIR.
Armstrong; and his wife were about to
join the Roman Catholic Church.
Mrs. VIM received the reporter cOrdi-
ally. She expressed herself willing to
give any news that laid in her power. She
believed it proper to say that her CORES
pondence with DIR. Armstrong or any other
person was entirely private in its nature,
and only at the urgent request of the re-
porter wauld she give the following extracts
from the letter which she has only recently
received from the doctor:
DIR. Armstrong in the letter says:
II have Just received your very kind
interesting letter, and am anxious to have
you in possession of some facts rs soon rs
possible"
81 was in Savannah on Easter day all
day, and |, therefore, was not III Atlanta
on any hour of that day"
'As to Father Kelley giving Mrs. Arm
strong and myself instructions as prepare
tory to our entering the Roman Catholic
Church is rich beyond meaure | don't
believe that my most devOut enemies would
believe that of me. While | never felt
that the only way to secure salvation
was by attacking the Roman Catholic
Church; while | never gained the reputa-
ton of being prc-eminently pious by per-
sistent hammering ON that nail or an
vii, l yet suppose that those who
know me best know full well that
my theology is a wide remOve from the
theology OF Rome. Certainly, my methods
of thought are very different from those
which she prescribes. These methods |
gave out to the Richmond people both pub
licly and privately for a period OF six years,
aud therefore ! had thought that the pcO-
pie of Richmond had the opportunity of
knowing them pretty thoroughly. But it
seems that ! must quote the words of n
greater than SOlOmOn's, and say, Have |
been so long with yOu and vet thou hast
not known me, Philip"
81 am very sure it is not necessary for
me to say to you that | could not possibly
be n Roman Catholic
This settles y question in which all of
DIR. Armstrong; friends have felt great in
tereSt.
